I been helping my friend at their shop during the weekend. It is more of a repayment act to thank them for their assistant during my tough time. So, what they sell? They sell Crystal Healing!
Energy healing works upon the electromagnetic field around our body, known as the aura. This field has been discussed and contemplated within the realms of healing and philosophy for thousands of years. Kirlian photography has been used to photograph it and science has proven that it must exist around every physical object and organism. An in-depth look at the aura reveals that it consists of several layers called the subtle bodies. These contain further energy systems, all interconnected and affecting each other as well as the physical body. The auric field directly relates to our emotional, mental and spiritual makeup and so, when we are well and healthy, the energies flowing through it are clear and balanced. Any form of disharmony in our lives, however, can cause blockages or other disturbances in our aura and when not addressed, they may eventually manifest as physical illness.
How does Crystal Healing work?
Crystals have been used for healing since ancient times by many different cultures and in the last twenty odd years, there has been a great revival of this art. Crystals are highly powerful and effective tools for healing as they contain a number of special properties and interact with us in many different ways. One of these properties is the unique vibration of each crystal. This is a result of its colour frequency, chemical composition, inner atomic structure and outer form. Not only does this property make a crystal indispensable in altering electromagnetic waves for medical machinery and quartz watches, but it can also modify ‘healing energy’. Another property of crystals is the distinct orderly structure which enables them to absorb, reflect, transform, transmute, balance, direct, amplify, clear, focus etc. energies. Essentially, a crystal can adapt healing energy in any way imaginable. Since crystals and minerals make up most of the earth’s crust and also reside within the human body, it can be said that, in a sense, we are all part of and living on a crystal.
So thru them I learned about crystal healing and aura reading. And I observed when I am in the shop. Frequently customer comes to seek " impermenant happiness" , eg. money, love, career and health. When they got a job, they want a highier pay. When they got the money, they want love(s). When they have love, they want babies. When they have babies, they want to resolve their marriage problems. When they resolved all that , they seek for cure or preventive for health.
Is that happiness? Or that going around and around of the Wheel of Samsara?
Dharma is thought of the mind with is purified. If I get Bhante Punaji word correct. Attaining any level of sainthood is happiness. Even be able to get in touch with Dharma is happiness. Let go of ignorance, craving and ill-will is happiness.
I am doing my best to understand the Dharma . As Buddha said :
Believe nothing just because a so-called wise person said it. Believe nothing just because a belief is generally held. Believe nothing just because it is said in ancient books. Believe nothing just because it is said to be of divine origin. Believe nothing just because someone else believes it. Believe only what you yourself test and judge to be true.
I experienced the above mentioned (cycle of samsara ) that why I can tell you, learning Dharma is happiness.
